    Hunting licenses are not required in order to purchase and possess firearms in the U. S.

    Good thing my kids weren't there. Those cops would have had to shoot me, or cuff me to keep me from going on the attack.

    LOL a couple things, the NRA backs a ton of Dems. Number 2 I've never been a NRA member, never read any of their stuff, could care less but have no less than 25 guns mainly for hunting but for protection as well. Take all the guns out of criminals hands in the inner cities and then we'll talk. You on the left that refuse to let officers in murderville USA inner cities, not profile and take illegal weapons away from the gangs and criminals will never ever get a vote from me to give up my right to a firearm or an ar15 for that matter. Carry on though keep using politics off these children's deaths, it's never worked for you and never will.

    Having a crappy home life and being a 'cross-dresser' does not make any American citizen ineligible to purchase and possess firearms, Pixie.

    Believe me, I know it's all quite different in Europe... my German friends complain endlessly about their lack of any credible way to defend themselves, because the German government almost entirely forbids it.... Ironic indeed, because this was also true when the Nazis ruled Germany! :frown:

    I think I read that he bought them one day apart and they were fresh out of tanks.

    Seems like the the problem is only allowing outlaws to have guns at school.

    People don't seem to give half a **** about making schools safer.

    They just delight in the massacres as an excuse to rattle their empty headed jaws about gun control until they become exhausted with the topic but to return until they have another excuse to rattle their empty headed jaws pointlessly about their pipe dream again.

    Distracting from the issue to jerk themselves off.

    Likely to be overruled by the supreme court.
    Why don't these brain dead morons try and solve the problem rather than placating people who use the corpses of children to attack political enemies.

    You keep asking these questions, even after you get the answers.
    Why?

    To defend themselves and others. The Supreme Court has made it clear the right to bear arms is not limited to forming a militia. It never has been.

    That's what happened in some videos.

    https://twitter.com/paleofuture/status/1529652093354536961?t=RJQJquJH8YlHvJPW4Ybc_A&s=19

    There has been some developments. Earlier the cops said the shooter was engaged upon entering the school. Then they walked back on the claim saying he went into the school without confrontation. Apparently, 40% of the town's budget goes to the police, and they couldn't break through the door and had to get a school official to unlock it for them.

    The fact that they did not act sooner? Yes that is their fault.

    Remember you saying that he was initially fired upon by cops were who are unable to stop him?
    In fact you even started a thread based on that lie.

    Well it turns out that's a lie. They were fired at and decided to hunker down and call for reinforcements instead of going in.

    So I'm going to add a link here to update you on the specifics of the case and maybe you can go and put a big disclaimer on your thread which was not true. Read this and learn what happened

    For evidently my link has disappeared from my phone.... I will see if I can find it again.

    But it said the early reports that a school resource officer fired upon the shooter were inaccurate.

    So do you think they should have just sat there with their thumb up their ass for 40 minutes while the killer went on a rampage?

    What the hell good were the police in this scenario? I would really love to hear you answer and justify why they took 40 damn minutes I would really love to hear you answer and justify why it took them 40 minutes to do anything.

    Brace for the official cover-up. SOP.

    When a creature like Salvador Ramos is involved... a murderer with NO police record and NO history of mental problems -- then the only way you can differentiate him from others beforehand is through PROFILING!

    Ooh! Can you even imagine the howling, shrieking, and bitching from the hyperliberal Left if anybody used "profiling" techniques to identify potential criminals today -- especially among a population of Mexican-American 'Latinos'...?! You would never (NEVER) hear the end of it! :icon_jawdrop:

    Why didn't cops go in the back door like the shooter did?

    The timeline is still unclear, but early reports suggests he entered the school and immediately locked himself in the classroom and started shooting the kids. I'm sure the official statement will be to follow protocol and secure the scene, but he was there for an hour before the classroom was breached by the police. Time is of the essence and many children died from blood loss at the hospital. If you aren't going to engage the shooter ASAP and rescue those kids, then when?

    How would profiling work in a neighborhood that is 90% Latino? And why is that the "only way". A Teenager buying so much gear and ammo in such short period of time should have lit the red lights.

    Uvalde cops went into the school to get their own kids out?

    [​IMG]


    "Here’s a Texas DPS Lieutenant telling a local station that some officers breached the school to get their own children BEFORE the shooter was taken down."

    While they were restraining parents to prevent them from rescuing their children?

    Hearts break

    "Joe Garcia, the husband of Irma Garcia, one of two teachers shot and killed in Uvalde, TX on Tuesday, has suffered a fatal heart attack. Joe and Irma were high school sweethearts and married 24 years. They leave behind four children."
